Improvement of the UWWTD SIIF IT toolbox
Extension of the UWWTD SIIF IT toolbox to 4 new Member States
Support to all the 7 MS for the reporting under the 9th reporting exercise

3. Improvements to the toolbox: The situation
The toolbox: a website + a web services module
For Slovenia (+CY +LT) version 1 transferred February-March 2015
Each pilot MS will:
Translate in national language
Link to existing national systems
Identify specific adjustments
4 new countries will implement in 2015 (RO, BG, IT ?)
New needs from all 7 MSs, from financers (World Bank?, …)
Improvements of current functions
Addition of information (Art17, economic data…)

4. Improvements to the toolbox: first steps
A set of new functionalities identified:
Online generated reports and printing facilities,
Improved QA/QC routines (tests + draft compliance)
New possibilities with dynamic maps (other national data),
SIIF platforms for sub-national level (visualisation)
New process for UWWTD official reporting
From specification to development
Implementation of current toolbox for the 4 new pilot MSs
Identification of users needs (interview, specification document, webuser college)
Proposals for each pilot MS
Development on the generic toolbox
Implementation on each pilot MS platform
Feedback and bugs fixing

5. Improvements to the toolbox: online reports

9. Conclusion A collaborative work: crucial for the success !!!
A platform common to 7 MSs will ease the update/improvements
Open source softwares: no license, improvements and new functionalities possible
Administration guide for maintenance
FAQ and bug tracker
Today Workshop: an important step for
Improvement of the toolbox
Feedback on implemented system
Specific needs
